“Both my wife and I are overjoyed at the arrival of my first grandchild. It is an incredibly special moment for William and Catherine and we are so thrilled for them on the birth of their baby boy.

"Grandparenthood is a unique moment in anyone’s life, as countless kind people have told me in recent months, so I am enormously proud and happy to be a grandfather for the first time and we are eagerly looking forward to seeing the baby in the near future.”

But it will be a spare, not the heir. Some pepole wanted, for whatever reasons, a Queen Diana.
The crowd in front of BP is just HUGE.

It's true, people wanted it to be a girl because she might have become a future Queen like her grandmother. It seems that more people are fascinated with having Queens instead of Kings since it was always full of Kings and now girls can rule over their country. In the old days it had to be a boy to rule, and now it goes either way.
